Acension Sacred Heart Medical Group is celebrating the opening of its first Urgent Care in Walton County, expanding access to convenient care for residents and visitors near 30A.
Sacred Heart Primary Care and Urgent Care - South Walton is located at 5551 US Hwy 98 in Santa Rosa Beach. The clinic is open seven days a week for walk-ins. Hours are Monday through Friday from 8 a.m. to 6 p.m. and Saturday and Sunday from 8 a.m. to 3 p.m.
“We are excited to provide urgent care for patients who need to be seen for illnesses and injuries that can be treated outside of the emergency room with convenient access to 30A”, said Trey Abshier, President and CEO of Ascension Sacred Heart Emerald Coast. “This will allow people to get the care they need close to home sooner and help to lessen waits at the ER.”
High temperatures, intense humidity and an influx of visitors drive a surge in emergency medical calls across Destin and South Walton County each summer. The need for convenient, accessible care extends year-round and the new urgent care helps meet that demand.
Ascension Sacred Heart Medical Group also expanded primary care in February with the opening of a new clinic in Santa Rosa Beach . Ascension Sacred Heart Primary Care - Mack Bayou is located in the Medical Office Building on Mack Bayou Loop. Laura Bruck-Hillas, APRN, is accepting new patients. Appointments can be made by calling 850-278-3932.
Walk-in care is available in Okaloosa County at Ascension Sacred Heart Medical Park and Walk-in Clinic - Destin, 36500 Emerald Coast Parkway in Destin. Hours are Monday through Friday from 7:30 a.m. - 3:00 p.m.
